[ROM/KERNEL] CM11 (Android 4.4) + 3.0.72 Kernel for Kindle Fire 2 [NIGHTLIES]

[Feorch]

Download flashify from the play store and flash the IMG. BTW you guys are screwed of anything happens to your tablet because you have not taken the time to learn how to do things by command line. I promise you it's worth the effort and time

video streams

I loaded the M8 , then followed it up with the 20140714 nightly.

Happy that location issues seem to be resolved.

I am seeing more than one app (news stations) that fail to stream video .
seems like the video "just" starts, then chokes

CNN, youtube, and some other news apps work fine, the apps in question havent been a problem on earlier releases.

Does anyone have any hints on what to try?
I tried individually

in developer options:
Force GPU rendering
Disable hardware overlays

in Performance options:
Enable 16 bit transparency

Thanks! @ hashcode, this is an awesome build.

As you some of you may have noticed: I have a new job working with Linaro Mobile Group beginning 9/1/2014.

This is a HUGE change in my professional career, and I want to be 100% focused on my current duties.

This means, that I will be ending my support for the Kindle Fire devices as official CM maintainer.

Over the next few weeks, I'll be working with CM to get a replacement dev to step in and continue updates / tweaks to the device.

Lastly, ending my support for the Kindles was a VERY difficult choice. My TODO list is long and extensive with plans for updates well into next year ... To not get around to really polishing many of these builds makes me a bit sad.

BUT, this is where YOU (the community) can step in and make a difference. Continue to push these devices onward. I wish you all well.

Alright, CM11 bumped to 4.4.3 on latest Nightly build, with kernel security patch.

and TWRP 2.7.1.0 is here, tested and seems to be working fine http://d-h.st/oyf

Hey Fuzz! Are you taking over where Hashcode left off? If so good luck and thank you. Any plans on getting a Fire HD Tab once it comes out?

Anyone else having network connection problems with M10? Only seems to connect to my wifi properly 1 in five attempts or so, usually connects but failed to find/set DNS meaning local IPs are reachable but no domains, anyone have any ideas?

 

[Itsbricked]

Are you planning on porting CM12?

With CyanogenMod dead, and there is unlikely to be any support from Lineageos, I'll just post some download links here to keep you guys going!
Development is completely dead on the CM side, so I've linked the archive.org backup of the last produced nightly.

CyanogenMod 20160815: https://web.archive.org/web/2016122...kins/174310/cm-11-20160815-NIGHTLY-otter2.zip
Latest gapps: http://opengapps.org/?arch=arm&api=4.4&variant=nano

I've moved from Amazon OS 10.5.1 to CM with only one hitch - I used the Kingroot app to gain root access, and from there you can follow the normal instructions. Make sure you have the most up to date TWRP, or the CM zip will fail!

I was happy to see your post, especially when reading the "ONLY ONE HITCH". What are the NORMAL instructions? Nearly everything seems to be down.

Hey Guys

I just compiled the latest LineageOS 11 (Android 4.4) with security patches from june:

lineage-11-20170708-UNOFFICIAL-otter2: https://mega.nz/#!doN2mY5L!HjXPmYaAhAa3oUJNn8a178_kOPW2XdUNKR8SUvYKSvw
GApps: http://opengapps.org/?arch=arm&api=4.4&variant=nano

I JUST COMPILED THAT. ALL THE WORK WAS DONE BY @Hashcode AND ALL OTHER CONTRIBUTORS. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! BACKUP EVERYTHING!

Troubleshooting
If you have problems with WiFi try to set the right wifi region code (Settings -> Wifi -> Advanced -> Wifi Region Code).

Hi, just some positive feedback.
Installs and boots fine, I used an older gapps to start, one that was closer to the release of the original CM11's.... I haven't had luck with brand new opengapps on cm11 roms.
updates to the latest play store just fine.

The rom runs fine, I was hoping for screen casting drivers to have somehow magically appeared, but wont happen I guess....
I had no problems with WiFi

Thanks for providing it.

Do you can update too the Kindle Fire HD 8.9 (JEM)? I use the old Hashcode 4.4 rom. Thanks!

Just compiled the latest version of LineageOS 11 (security patch December, but still shows November...). lineage-11-20180208-UNOFFICIAL-otter2: https://mega.nz/#!wllkhIqR!IQmSExATGjhA5z6dzaZrAMq29LgShvnuJ4BoRrE5axk

Thank you so much.....Just a couple of things

I used this guide (2nd bootloader etc)
https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75445443&postcount=568111

but this recovery
-otter2-twrp-2.6.3.1-recovery.img
(2.7 didnt work)

and this gApps (between rom and gapps install i might have had to wipe dalvik cache first)
-open_gapps-arm-4.4-pico-20180828.zip
(latest open_gapps-arm-4.4-pico-20180910.zip didn't load google play)

and downloaded this youtube apk directly and installed
-September 9, 2018 armeabi-v7a Android 4.2+ 160dpi (might have been 240dpi try )
(as from google play the youtube didnt work properly - this may have just been me though. After apk install not sure if then signing into google play improved anything/settled system down)

but all happy with it, so enjoy

I built a newer ROM:

lineage-11-20181109-UNOFFICIAL-otter2.zip

Works with open_gapps-arm-4.4-pico-20181109.zip

Tested on TWRP 2.6.3.1 recovery. Security patch shows August 1, 2018.

I'm not going to commit to regular updates or anything but if I make a newer ROM it will be here:
